Ochsner Patient Verified Reviews
To obtain patient ratings and comments, we partner with Press Ganey, an independent patient satisfaction company that works with more than 26,000 healthcare organizations to improve the patient experience. These patient verified ratings are based on the “likelihood to recommend” physician scores on the nationally developed Medical Practice Survey. Actual top box results for this question are translated to a 1-5 scale, and the star scores are measured on that scale, with 5 being the best score.
Dr. Algu was very personable. He was an easy decision to make as my child's first pediatrician.
Dr. Algu was very caring and had listen to all questions we had
This was our first visit with my teenage son. Dr. Algu treated him with respect and had concern for his privacy, and I was very happy with the scope of issues both medical and social that he touched on.
He is a great listener and answers all questions politely.
I think we've found our new primary pediatrician! Dr. Algu was gentle and kind. Talked to both me and my son which made him feel included and heard.
Dr Algu is an excellent doctor. He was kind and compassionate to my daughter. Had great bedside manner. I would highly recommend him.
Very kind and personal able. Great with kids.
Dr. Algu was so patient & explained diagnosis/treatment to us thoroughly.
I really recommend Doctor Algu Nicholas to my family and friends
Dr. Algu is always super responsive to my questions and when he is unsure of something (like the availability of the RSV vaccine) he searches out the answer for us. He also has wonderful bedside manner. We initially planned to see another pediatrician at Oschner, but have decided to start seeing him instead as we really appreciate his care during visits.
I didn't have any problems to discuss regarding my son this visit. However, Dr. Algu has been thoughtful when there were issues. He's always let my husband and I talk to explain what's going on/our fears before providing his thoughts/plans for handling our concern.
Very impressed with doctor
My child told the doctor about a minor discomfort which the doctor forgot to address. To be fair, so did my child.
ALL GOOD
Exceptional way of explaining things- very good listener!
Dr Algu was amazing, he answered all ours questions
We couldn't ask for a better doctor. He always addresses all of our concerns in a very timely matter.
Very polite and professional
Dr. Algu was very nice to my daughter and treated her with care!! I would recommend him to other parents!
Dr. Algu is the best any parent can ask for.
This was our first time seeing this doctor and I have no complaints. He was caring and reasonably concerned while answering my questions.
Was impressed with my children's new doctor. He followed through regarding a medicine and called me himself. Thank you!
